SI train? Naw.
The SI suborbital got in this morning.
Still, for all that, it's an enjoyable read. To some degree, the crazed 'oh my god he did not just do that' stuff is required for the genre. We are, after all, talking about an escapist guilty pleasure action adventure romp.
That the protagonist is doing the crazy hardware shiz, drivin' awesome cool vehicles, and makin' with the beautiful women - well, c'mon, that's sorta the point. The fact he's explicitly an author avatar does not change it, if anything it adds to it. If you don't see that, then you don't get it.
And, hell, the man writes well. Can't really ask for more.
Many professionals get by with a lot less.
